Welcome wanderer! Are you ready for epic journey in which your mind will be tested? Your quest is to get to the very last level of Dark Tower. On your way you'll face dangerous enemies like goblins, skeletons, mages, vampires and many more!

Every level of the tower is some kind of labrynth where first priority is to upgrade your character. It is necessary, because otherwise you won't be able to defeat enemies - you would be too weak. Another issue is to manage your door keys. You can easily get stuck! So watch out and prepare yourself for starting over again many times!

So sharpen a sword, snatch a shield and face the challange of DarkTower!

This is definitely the most fun I've had with a flash game for a very long time. It's nostalgic feel and excellent mechanics, graphics and sound make this definitely one of the best flash games ever on Newgrounds. 5/5

I disagree with the negative comments here. People are used to easy 5-minute games and as soon as there is a challenge, they don't like it. It took me several tries but I finished the game. It's difficult but it's not impossible. The keys are not a problem once you pass the first few easy levels. It's not a mindless "shoot at everything" game. You have to think and strategize. I finished the game with a ton of health and stars, so it's not like there is only one solution and you have to exhaust everything. I also don't get the hate regarding it looking like a copy of another game. It's the same genre, sure, but it's not the exact same game. How many variations are there of the candy crush type games...? And people still like it. I like the graphics and user interface. Everything was smooth. Like I said, I think some people are just frustrated that it wasn't an easy puzzle. Of course, I also got frustrated a few times when I finally got to higher levels and couldn't do anything because I was too weak. I just didn't give up. Every time you fail, you learn something new.
A few tips: every single time you earn enough stars or money to get an upgrade, get defense. Don't wait until you get more because you're too lazy to run to the shop. Get it right away so that you can kill more and not lose health.

This isn't a copy of magic tower, it's a new game made with the battle system of magic tower. And it takes a few play-throughs to get perfect, but your bestiary is persistent through games. Hint: Focus on defense to the point where you don't get hurt and then farm. Only buy defense until level 12, where you start needing more attack. You have to really think about keys for the first few levels, but afterwards key management gets much easier.
